Castro Seizes Texaco Cuba Refinery Amid Sugar Dispute
Fidel Castro moves to intervene in Cuba by taking over the Texaco refinery after the company refused to comply with his sugar price policy. He warned of further nationalization if the U.S. cuts sugar purchases, while a rally among sugar workers echoed the tension. The government claims the seizure is within state authority, as three foreign refiners face potential compensation disputes and futures on Soviet oil.

Washington AP reports a higher share of farmers met federal marketing quotas for the 1859 wheat crop than for time controls.
